摘要
We investigate the phenomena of symmetry breaking and phase transition in theground state of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) trapped in a double square well and in an opticallattice well, respectively. By using standing-wave expansion method, we present symmetric andasymmetric ground state solutions of nonlinear Schroedinger equation (NLSE) with a symmetric doublesquare well potential for attractive nonlinearity. In particular, we study the ground state wavefunction's properties by changing the depth of potential and atomic interactions (here we restrictourselves to the attractive regime). By using the Fourier grid Hamiltonian method, we also reveal aphase transition of BECs trapped in one-dimensional optical lattice potential.
